Competition-colonization trade-offs, competitive uncertainty, and the evolutionary assembly of species.
We utilize a standard competition-colonization metapopulation model in order to study the evolutionary assembly of species. Based on earlier work showing how models assuming strict competitive hierarchies will likely lead to runaway evolution and self-extinction for all species, we adopt a continuou...
